Traditional Indian styling in a vibrant fuchsia pattern and textured lightweight cotton make an excellent travel outfit. The Indian city of Jaipur has been an artistic center since the 18th century and is known as the Pink City because of the stucco that was used to imitate red sandstone. It is in the Pink City that this bright ensemble is made as part of a thriving cottage textile industry. The loose-fitting style is flattering on any woman, and the crinkle fabric makes this ideal for pack-and-go travel. Expand your travel wardrobe by pairing the tunic with jeans or the skirt with a T-shirt.

Please note: The brightness of our Pink City Skirt can vary a little from that pictured due to the moisture in the air when the fabric is dyed. During monsoon seasonroughly June through September in Rajasthanthe colors can turn out a little softer than they do during the winter and spring. We hope that you will accept slight variations as part of the delicate balance of working with handcrafted items and small artisan studios.

The fabric is not appropriate for the tightly wrinkled style, as it has been treated with some sort of stiffener. There is so much stiff fabric that the skirt does not drape or swing as it should, and one looks like a balloon

In 1876 the Maharaja Jam Singh painted the city of Jaipur pinkthe color of hospitalityin honor of the Prince of Wales’ first visit to Rajastan. The legacy of his gracious gesture lives on in Jaipur, which is known throughout India as the Pink City. For centuries before the prince's visit, Jaipur had been known as a jewelry capital, where artisans and merchants sold stones and worked metal. Many things have changed in India since the days of colonial rule, but Jaipur’s jewelry tradition remains strong. Handmade in one of the city's countless small jewelry shops, these beautiful earrings pair a traditional metal filigree motif with a faceted glass bead.

The word “bandana” and its distinctive paisley patterns come from the Rajasthani tie-dye technique of bandhani. Thousands of tiny knots are tied in complex patterns across a piece of fabric. When the fabric is dyed, the knotted areas remain light, and dotted patterns emerge as the knots are untied. This bright pink crinkle-cotton skirt is decorated with bandhani patterns and makes a perfect travel garment since its wrinkles are part of the style. Hand-dyed in Jaipur, India.
